Tower Reclamation is another place of interest to many and a fantastic supplier of architectural salvage offering a wide range of interesting antique building materials originating from Farmhouses, Country Cottages, Victorian Workshops and Manor Houses.

Easton Farm Park is just over twenty miles away and another popular place ideal for a family day out where the children can hand feed the animals, meet the pigs, ride ponies and collect the chickens eggs. 

Alternatively for the adults, you could enjoy a special experience at one of Suffolks last remaining pubs with a no bar-counter - simply go into the tap room out the back! The Kings Head is located in the pretty village of Laxfield and is a local treasure. 

Framlingham is a charming village to visit with a market square with great deli, excellent pubs and restaurants and a magnificent 12th Century fortress - Framlingham Castle.  Another popular destination is Helmingham Hall whose beautiful garden open days provide the main attraction, along with great events like Suffolk dog days, the festival of Classic and Sports Cars and a food and drink festival.
